Various supermarket chains across the United States have issued product recalls amid the ongoing Salmonella outbreak, with Kroger, Whole Foods, and Walmart among the most affected.
Health officials have reported that 345 people across the country have been struck down by the foodborne illness. There are currently no fatalities, but at least 36 sufferers across 27 states in the South, West, and Midwest have been admitted to hospitals.
Experts at the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have warned that the true number of sick people is ‘likely much higher than the number reported’ as many people recover without medical care and are not tested for Salmonella.
Investigators probing the report believe illnesses are linked to jalapeños sourced from Coast Citrus Distributors in Sinaloa, Mexico.

Health concerns relating to the peppers started on dates ranging from 19 June to 20 July, as per the American Academy of Paediatrics.
Taylor Fresh Foods has also recalled jalapeño peppers. The recall includes whole peppers and products such as burritos, bowls, guacamole, sandwiches, salsas, salads, and wraps.

Meanwhile, Chipotle Mexican Grill and QDOBA have stopped serving affected jalapeño peppers to customers. The CDC and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have confirmed that there is no risk from these establishments to consumers in this outbreak.
Here are all the supermarket-sold foods impacted by the major recall:

Five products sold at various Target stores in Florida, Ohio and Texas have been recalled, including:
